Abstract:
This research study aimed to investigate the impact of mindfulness-based interventions on stress reduction. The study utilized a pre- and post-intervention design to assess changes in stress levels among participants who engaged in a mindfulness-based intervention program. The sample consisted of 100 individuals from Tirunelveli city. Participants completed a questionnaire assessing their stress levels before and after the intervention program. The questionnaire also included items related to relaxation, mindfulness awareness, coping with stress, and overall well-being. Descriptive statistics, including means and standard deviations, were calculated for each variable. The results revealed a statistically significant reduction in stress levels following participation in the mindfulness-based intervention. The mean stress levels decreased from pre-intervention mean 3.48 to post-intervention mean 2.41, indicating a significant improvement in stress management. This finding suggests that mindfulness-based interventions have a positive impact on stress reduction. Furthermore, participants reported higher scores for relaxation, mindfulness awareness, coping with stress, and overall well-being after the intervention. These results suggest that the mindfulness-based intervention not only reduced stress but also enhanced various aspects of psychological well-being.
